Nipping.
Damsels still in there?
 
Fish looks really good though. Color is coming in.
Other than the nipped parts the fish looks great. Eating well and color is good.
 
I'd move him back to the other tank for a bit
It’s going to be impossible to get him out. Also I got clowns going into that tank soon!
 
I hope so. How can you tell if it the start of fin rot? And how would that start?
Never had one with fin rot but usually you will see blood under the skin and skin looking strange.
Not fin rot here it's nipping.
Your water quality is too good for rot.

Ok good to know.
Thank you.
I will keep an eye on her.
 
Fin rot starts looking like it's got fungus growing on it usually.
